Your current choices are registered in local browser storage and can be modified or fully revoked at any moment using the "Cookie Settings" link in our footer.

5. Data Preservation and Deletion

Under APPI guidelines, personal information is stored only for as long as necessary to fulfill curation services and legal preservation mandates. Upon expiration of the coordination service or upon formal deletion request, your files are destroyed or permanently anonymized using secure system procedures.

6. Rights of the Individual

As an individual, you hold comprehensive rights over your personal data under the Japanese APPI. This includes the right to request access, seek correction of errors, demand cessation of utilization (deletion), or restrict transfer to third parties. To invoke your rights, submit a written inquiry to our team at [email protected]. If you believe your data has been handled improperly, you have the right to lodge a formal complaint with the Personal Information Protection Commission (PPC) of Japan.

7. Children's Privacy

Our alternative design curation services are not targeted at individuals under the age of 18. We do not intentionally acquire or retain personal information from children under this age threshold. If we discover such information has been sent to our inbox without proper guardian authorization, we will remove it immediately.
